Hi there! As Halloween is almost here, I thought today we could take a look at one of Nintendo's spookiest series, Luigi's Mansion.

By the way, I’ve never made any videos like this before, so feel free to throw feedback at me. I am ready!

Oh also, here's a fun anecdote about this video - for the research, I needed one specific interview from the Official Nintendo Player's Guide, but I couldn't find it *anywhere* online. I eventually messaged all the group chats I'm a part of, but not even they could find it. Eventually a good Samaritan on Reddit sent me photos of their copy. The whole thing was a bit of a palaver though!
